After havingbeen on the train constantly for thupast four days, Joe Turner, who wrestles Mike Yokel in the Auditorium tonight, arrived yesterday looking asfresh and chipper as If he had justcome from his training ijuartors Thevery first thing be did after agreeingwith Mike thai Ben Harker was agood referee, was to hurry over to thefire station to set the stiffness out ofhis muscles. He worked with youngCrabbe Nathan and another wrestlerIncidentally, Turner said after wrestling with Crabbe that the youngsterat. a c onv iYokel and Turner looked at eachother curiously watching gestureswalk and everything that could possibly give an indication of strength oragility Turner will take anotherlight workout this morning and thenafter weighing In at 158 at 3 o'clock,ho will go on the mat with Mike, directly after the preliminaries whichbegin at 8 15 o'clock are finishedTurner looks the part of a cham- Iplonshlp wrestler and he has a lot atStake in this match, for he has signed Iwith Al Reeves for a big tour in England and France, providing he bringsthe championship back from Utah Ifhe loses to Mike the contract Is invalidTurner in the last five years hasundoubtedly thrown more men thanany other wrestler in the world, formost of this time he has spent withtheatrical burlesque shows, challening and meeting the best men in thecltieB where the show was playingSometimes he has thrown three anight and hardly B week has passed.hat he hns thrown less than an average of one a dayThlB does not mean, however, thathe has not met and conquered some','f the best professionals, for he hasBoth in England and In AmericaTurner has defeated the best menthey could find for him, Yokel -xcepted. If Yokel had lived In the ieast they undoubtedly must have metlong before this.Turner estimates that In the lastfive years he has thrown 1000 opponents. Only last Friday night he pinnedthe shoulders of big Hassan Youssouf,the 1&0 pound wrestler who was inSalt Lake last summer, to the matIn straight falls of nineteen minutesand seven minutes Some of Turner'sbest recent victories followWalt Evaus, champion of the south.Turner won In three hours and fiftysewn minutes last Thanksgiving dayat Knoxville, Tenn.Jim Prokos, the "Greek Demon," ofBoston Turner won In forty-one minutes and seven minutes.

If experience can make awrestler surely Turner has had .illkindsWhen asked If he noticed the altitude at all. Turner said his mouth feltdry and his throat a trifle sore, buthe thought that was the natural result of traveling so long. He believithe altitude will not affect him at nil.He Is 26 years of age and weighsabout 154 poundsDespite the fact that they are atthe top of the middleweight heap Yokel and Turner gave no evidences .ifthe prima donna temperament whichso man champions show W'hrn th -ymet to pick a referee they BelectedBen Harker after only a few minutesdiscussion Both men were whollyreasonable and neither acted at alllike the average champion.Yokel Is in the ery best shape posslble for this match, and while hisconfidence Is what a champion'sshould he, he knows he will have towork hard Turner Is just as confident Both men have won so manytimes that they are not worrying nowEXCUSE OFFERED.Tohn. you never listen to half thethings I say to vou," she complained'Well, dear," he replied, "I haveto work part of the time."

Recent reports state thatPapke repeatedly fouled Klaus, andafter being warned h the refereenumerous times he was disqualified,Of course wc must give Klaus creditfor a win, but at the same time weI must remember that Papke is a good!1 man and capable of doing better.Klaus has always been noted for belag a rough lighter, but, according toamices, Papke made him look like anamateur at that style of millingHence the referee's Intervention.W hat is the use of censuring a manwhen he makes a mistake" ProbablvPapke figured that he was so wellliked in France that he could get bjwith almost anything, but when hebecame too raw In his methods hefound that he was sadly mistakenThe Kewanee man was the favoriteIn the betting, and held the title ofmiddleweight champion of FranceBut he failed to beat the husky fellow from the smoky city.Al the same time Papke is not tohe censured too severely True hefoulPd, and as the fans do not likeI thr.t, Papke must bear the brunt ofhis mistakeNow the question of the title Issifted down to the same place that Iti was several months ago. Many crlt-I les figure, that the winner of theParis bout would be the most logicalman to fight for the title which waleft vacant by the death of StnnlevKetchel At the present time EddieHcGoorty seems to have the bestclaims on the title, but he also has;been fighting In and out. and whentlms-. facts are taken into considera- jti 1 1 it Is hard to figure who Is theI best man However, all Indicationspoint toward a meeting between Klausand BIcGoorty .II Klaus can make the weight andbfl strong he Is liable to beat any middleweight in the world, and the samelcan be said of McOoortv But these1fellowa like to chent the srales and iweigh In at about ifW to If.", pounds,when ther know that the weight Is18 pounds.
